Media+Activities

=MEDIA ACTIVITIES= =In media, we have five activities that never change.= 1. Sit on the ABC rug. 2. Say "hi" to Mrs. Flory and Molly Media Mouse. 3. Read a story; this quarter the book is "//**There was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly."**// 4. Watch the story on video...a HUGE crowd pleaser. 5. Color a picture associated with the story. We use this opportunity to work on finger grip, focus, prewriting strokes (-,/,+,0), and completing a task.

We have pictures denoting these activities as cues for the children. At the end of the time, we all practice saying "goodbye."


 * We are all amazed at how repetition helps the children participate more fully, answer questions relating to a familiar book from a less familiar adult, and refine motor skills. Mrs. Flory says we are her favorite class and is absolutely thrilled with the children's interaction with the text & with her.**
